Do They Know It's Christmas

Do They Know It's Christmas - Emily Hall

Lyrics by：Bob Geldof/Midge Ure

Composed by：Bob Geldof/Midge Ure

It's christmas time

There's no need to be afraid

At christmas time

We let in light and we banish shade

And in our world

Of plenty

We can spread a smile of joy

Throw your arms around the world

At christmas time

But say a prayer

Pray for the other ones

At christmas time

It's hard

But when you're having fun

There's a world outside your window

And it's a world of dread and fear

Where the only water flowing

Is the bitter sting of tears

And the christmas bells that ring there

Are the clanging chimes of doom

Well tonight thank God it's them

Instead of you

And there won't be snow in Africa this christmas time

The greatest gift they'll get this year is life

Oh oh

Where nothing ever grows

No rain nor rivers flow

Do they know it's christmas time at all

Feed the world

Let them know it's christmas time

Feed the world

Let them know it's christmas time

Let them know it's christmas time

Again
